AI Bill of Rights

The Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights is a non-binding policy framework published by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) in October 2022, articulating five principles for the design and deployment of AI systems that affect Americans: Safe and Effective Systems, Algorithmic Discrimination Protections, Data Privacy, Notice and Explanation, and Human Alternatives, Consideration, and Fallback. Each principle is accompanied by "what should be expected" guidance and "from principles to practice" technical and policy approaches. The Blueprint is explicitly not a regulation and has no enforcement mechanism on its own, but it served as the conceptual anchor for the Biden Administration's Executive Order 14110 on AI (October 2023, partially rescinded January 2025 under Executive Order 14179) and has influenced state laws like the Colorado AI Act, Illinois biometric and AI laws, New York City Local Law 144 (automated employment decision tools), and California's various AI bills. The Blueprint's framing — that AI systems should be designed and deployed with rights-based protections — has shaped how civil society, journalists, and Congressional committees discuss AI policy even where it has no force of law. The five principles map roughly to other frameworks: Safe and Effective Systems aligns with NIST AI RMF Measure and Manage; Algorithmic Discrimination Protections aligns with EU AI Act bias-mitigation requirements for high-risk systems; Data Privacy aligns with GDPR, CCPA, and the proposed federal APRA; Notice and Explanation aligns with the Right to Explanation under GDPR and the EU AI Act; Human Alternatives aligns with the human-oversight requirement in EU AI Act Article 14. AI governance teams treat the Blueprint as one of the conceptual frameworks (alongside NIST AI RMF and OECD AI Principles) that shape U.S. enterprise expectations, even though it has no direct enforcement power.
